On February 21, 1770, Spanish Authority set property aside for a church on the Second German Coast. The church served both the east and west bank on the river until 1864. The church was destroyed by fire in 1918 and this one was built in its place and consecrated in 1920. The old cemetery contains the grave of the wife of Gen. P.G.T. Beauregard and the John Slidell family tomb. You can see a few of the old graves here, though I was really shooting the No Parking sign :)
